[https://insight.fedoraproject.org Fedora Insight] is a [http://drupal.org Drupal-based] website that serves as a place to publish and share news, articles related to Fedora and [[Marketing|Fedora marketing materials]] in various formats. Insight makes it easy for users, developers, and journalists -- people who aren't yet a part of the Fedora contributor community -- to keep up with recent highlights without following a dozen different blogs and mailing lists.


Our current next step is to pick a platform. To achieve this, we need to:

'' This is a brainstorm list - what would you want a FooBar platform to have and do? Please add to the list below.''
=== Become part of our team ===


== Platform options ==
# Join the {{fplist|logistics}} mailing list and introduce yourself. Let us know:
#* Your name
#* Your skills/experiences/interests -- Even if you're active within another Fedora team, there may be other Fedora folks who haven't had the chance to meet you yet, so let them know who you are and that you're around!
#* The first task or ticket you plan to work on (see "Current issues" above) -- if you want to work on something else, tell us what it is
# (optional) Check out any other [[#Communications]] channels that you might be interested in.


''This is a brainstorm list; add your ideas and notes on various platforms below. Platforms are in alphabetical order.''
=== Development ===


=== Drupal ===
If you know something about Drupal or are a fast learner, we welcome you! We are working on designing the next group of features for Insight.  Here are the use cases we've outlined thus far:


* imo, way more features than we actually need. [[User:Mchua|Mel Chua]] 15:52, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
* [[Insight use cases for calendar]]
* bad security record, the sort of PHP app that infrastructure ''doesn't'' need --[[User:Ianweller|Ian Weller]] 15:54, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
* [[Insight use cases for status and microblogging]]
* [[Insight use cases for events]]


=== Wordpress (wp) ===
We're also starting to look forward to Drupal 7, and have started documenting critical path requirements for a future migration to Drupal 7 from Dupal 6:


* mizmo: i am hoping wp is chosen though because its a known quantity and [the Design team has] done themes for it before
* [[Insight Drupal 7 Dependencies]]
* has it been integrated into infra's systems, and met their security/packaging requirements?


=== Wordpress, multiuser (wp-mu) ===
=== Marketing ===


* ianweller: wp-mu i don't think is the right choice for foobar, it just complicates things and we don't need multiple blogs, unless of course we want to run the entire thing under the blogs.fp.o umbrella
The [[Marketing]] team will be publishing its [[Marketing#Release deliverables|release deliverables]] on Fedora Insight, and will be the second users of the platform after [[#FWN]].
** which, in general, we don't. --[[User:Ianweller|Ian Weller]] 16:11, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
** would it not be possible to take that as hosting though, and have it point to a different domain? it would give us all the power of a normal wp install, but have the happy side effect of already being deployed!


=== Zikula ===
We're currently figuring out additional content (other than our release deliverables) that would go into the [[#Content_workflow]]. Our current thinking is several ideas that have been filed as [https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/query?status=new&status=assigned&status=reopened&component=Fedora+Insight&order=priority multiple tickets in the Marketing trac instance].


* stickster: there's a great deal of crossover between what Foobar proposes, and what the new CMS (Zikula) can/will accomplish. Foobar sets out a lot of Marketing-specific goals, and I think most or all of them can be achieved through an implementation via the CMS.
If you want to help with the Marketing side of things, do the following:
* ke4qqq (Dave Nalley) summarizes Zikua: After a long period of input, eval, and testing by multiple groups (primarily Docs, but also Infrastructure and others), Zikula has been chosen as a CMS. It has a responsive upstream that's developing new modules for our needs and has even joined fp lists to help us collaborate on getting this up. It wil first be used for docs.fp.o, which currently has no CMS; FPC and F-Legal are also interested in using it - but we haven't mapped out that really well thus far - but it's after docs.fp.o makes the move. polecat (John Poelstra) has stepped up to coordinate teams for a production schedule and some meetings.
# Follow the instructions in the [[#How to help]] section of this page.
# [[Joining the Fedora marketing project|Join the Marketing team]], if you aren't already a member.
# Email the [https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing marketing list] and let the Marketing team know you're interested in helping with Fedora Insight.


== Name brainstorming ==
=== Packaging ===


''Because we can't call it FooBar forever.''
We could always use packaging help for Drupal and related modules.  If you see an unassigned (''NEW'') bug in [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/showdependencytree.cgi?id=662103&hide_resolved=1 this tracking list], that means there is a package review needed so we can make more progress.  The [https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/Package_Review_Process/ Package Review Process] page will show you how to do a review.  It takes some time to do a good package review, but in the process you can learn some technical skills and about how this process ensures a good experience for Fedora users installing software.

Fedora Insight is a Drupal-based website that serves as a place to publish and share news, articles related to Fedora and Fedora marketing materials in various formats. Insight makes it easy for users, developers, and journalists -- people who aren't yet a part of the Fedora contributor community -- to keep up with recent highlights without following a dozen different blogs and mailing lists.

This wiki page is for people interested in working on and contributing to Fedora Insight itself.

How to help

Personal Information
Fedora is a very visible and transparent project. Its mailing lists are archived and mirrored in many places on the internet outside of our control. Please use caution when sharing personal information with Fedora on a mailing list, because it is not possible for us to remove any postings from the wider Internet universe after they are sent. For more details, please refer to Fedora's Privacy Policy.

Decide what you want to do

I want to work on the theme and appearance of Insight. Join the Design team, and look at our page on How to work on the Insight theme.
I want to help develop and maintain the Insight system. Introduce yourself to the team (see below), and look at our page on How to develop for Insight.
I want to represent Fedora in the Drupal community. Join the Ambassadors team -- being a Fedora representative is more than just being a fan. We would love to have you on our team once you are versed in how the project works.

Become part of our team

  1. Join the logistics mailing list and introduce yourself. Let us know:
    • Your name
    • Your skills/experiences/interests -- Even if you're active within another Fedora team, there may be other Fedora folks who haven't had the chance to meet you yet, so let them know who you are and that you're around!
    • The first task or ticket you plan to work on (see "Current issues" above) -- if you want to work on something else, tell us what it is
  2. (optional) Check out any other #Communications channels that you might be interested in.

Development

If you know something about Drupal or are a fast learner, we welcome you! We are working on designing the next group of features for Insight. Here are the use cases we've outlined thus far:

We're also starting to look forward to Drupal 7, and have started documenting critical path requirements for a future migration to Drupal 7 from Dupal 6:

Marketing

The Marketing team will be publishing its release deliverables on Fedora Insight, and will be the second users of the platform after #FWN.

We're currently figuring out additional content (other than our release deliverables) that would go into the #Content_workflow. Our current thinking is several ideas that have been filed as multiple tickets in the Marketing trac instance.

If you want to help with the Marketing side of things, do the following:

  1. Follow the instructions in the #How to help section of this page.
  2. Join the Marketing team, if you aren't already a member.
  3. Email the marketing list and let the Marketing team know you're interested in helping with Fedora Insight.

Packaging

We could always use packaging help for Drupal and related modules. If you see an unassigned (NEW) bug in this tracking list, that means there is a package review needed so we can make more progress. The Package Review Process page will show you how to do a review. It takes some time to do a good package review, but in the process you can learn some technical skills and about how this process ensures a good experience for Fedora users installing software.

Content workflow

This is a content workflow envisioned for Fedora Insight.
